Re: Looking for an Xband Buddy
I'm still here. I didn't really know about Xband until after its demise, though, and I can't say I know much about football, either. It definitely would have been cool at the time.

I'll have to dig mine out of boxes! Unfortunately, someone parked a giant artificial Christmas tree in front of my stuff, so it's really difficult to get to!
